"You ready today Curt." Tim said as they entered the office. "Ya I'm ready. I just hope you are." he said smiling. "Hey guys. Ready to battle each other?" Shawn asked. "You bet." Tim said sitting down next to Simon and watched some T.V. "I would'nt get so comfortableTim. They're going to annouce the match in about 5 minutes." E.J said looking out the window. "Hey you guys watch'n the match. "You bet. I want to see finally who's better. To tell you the truth, I think Curt's going to win." Sharief said. "Yah right. The only reason you say that is because he beat you in the quarter-finals. Besides Tim's got this in the bag." Shawn said. "You want to bet."Sharief said with a smile. "How much?" Shawn asked with an eyebrow raised. "40 bucks says that Curt will beat Tim." Sharief said putting two 20 dollar bills on the table. "Your on. But lets make Seth the money keeper." Shawn said as he and Sharief gave the money to Seth. "May I have your attention the semi-finals are about to begin. Will Curt and Tim of Greenville report to the stadium.

BOTH TIM AND CURTIS HAS SHOWN TRUE SKILL AND POWER. NOW LET THE 4 ON 4 BATTLE BEGIN. After the annoucer finished the crowd roared again. Tim and Curt looked at each other and pulled out a pokeball. "Go Mangroove." Tim said releasing his Totodile. "Go Wooper." Curt said as he brung out his Wooper. "I thought you got a Mareep?" Tim asked. "I traded with Shawn. Now Wooper Water Gun." Curt said as Wooper let out a Water Gun toward Mangroove. "Mangroove Protect then Hydro Pump." Tim yelled as Mangroove deflected the attack and fired a Hydro Pump at Wooper Koing it. "Shit. Wooper return. Go Raichu." Curt said releasing his Raichu. "Mangroove Scary Face." Tim said as the Totodile's eye's went black and roared making Raichu cringe. "Raichu Star Shower. Show that little punk who's boss." Curt shouted. Raichu nodded and began to form stars around itself and fired them at Mangroove. "Mangroove Endure then Rage." Tim said just before the stars hit him. After the attack Mangroove began to become enraged and started slashing at Raichu. "Raichu Thundershock." Curt said as Raichu shocked Mangroove causing it to stop its Rage. "Mangroove Return." Tim said as he tried to recall Mangroove but dodged the beam from the pokeball. "Dile." it said shaking its head then turned to Raichu. "O.K Raichu take him out. Thunder." Curt said as Raichu sent an electrical shock towards Mangroove. "Mangroove Agility." Tim said as Mangroove used Agility to get out of the way of the Thunder. "Mangroove use Crystal Beam." Tim said as Mangroove sprayed water and ice at Raichu Koing it. After the attack Mangroove began to evolve into Croconaw. "Way to go Mangroove. Return" Tim said congradulating his pokemon for evolving and recalled him. "Go Golbat." Curt said releasing his pokemon. "Go Cronus." Tim said releasing his Golem. "Golbat Toxic Blast."

Curt said releasing his Hitmonlee. "O.K Cronus Mega Punch." Tim said as Cronus charged at Hitmonlee with a Mega Punch. "Himonlee High-Speed Kick." Curt said as Hitmonlee went flying through the air hitting Cronus koing it. "Cronus return. Go Inferno." Tim said releasing his Charizard. "Hitmonlee Hi Jump Kick." Curt said as Hitmonlee rushed toward Inferno getting ready to kick it. "Charizard Fly." Tim said just before Hitmonlee attacked. "Inferno while he's on the ground. Hell's Fire." Tim said as Inferno's ey's glowed a dark red and began to form a circle around Hitmonlee forming a tornado of fire Koing Hitmonlee. "OH MY GODDNESS. THAT WAS A TRAMENDOUS BATTLE. TIM HAS WON.
